OnePlus officially revealed its first book-style foldable smartphone, the OnePlus Open, yesterday. However, today we have a leak about the company’s next mainstream flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 12.

We have had plenty of OnePlus 12 leaks, and even high-quality renders that paint a clearer picture of the company’s next flagship. 

The latest OnePlus 12 leak comes from the reliable leaker Digital Chat Station on Weibo, revealing the device’s camera specs. 

OnePlus 12 may feature a 64MP periscope lens with a 3X zoom 

The leaker actually affirms the previous OnePlus 12 camera rumor, stating there will be a triple camera system on the back of the device, consisting of main, ultrawide, and periscope cameras. 

In addition, the leaker has dished out the camera specs, which we were unaware of until now. 

According to DCS, the primary shooter will be a 50MP f/1.7 IMX966 camera (1/1.4 inches, 23mm, OIS). It is a new primary camera, which is also slightly larger than the one on its predecessor, the OnePlus 11.  

On the other hand, the ultrawide lens will be a 48MP f/2.2 camera (1/2-inch, 14mm). The third camera will be a periscope lens. 

Latest smartphone trend has brands offering 3X or 3.5X periscope lenses paired with high-resolution sensors. It looks like OnePlus could follow this path. 

OnePlus is adding a periscope lens in its next flagship smartphone, which will be a a 64MP camera (f/2.5, OIS, 70mm) with a 1/2-inch Omnivision OV64B sensor, expected to feature 3X zoom. 

While it’s not a 5X periscope camera like some brands, OPPO offers great low-light zoom and respectable long-range zoom quality with this approach. Maybe OnePlus is following the same route. 

That said, the leaker also recently revealed in another OnePlus 12 leak the device will be available in a White variant with a glossy back finish.
